This book is bright, colorful and fun with lots of hats! There are two wonderful repeated lines the kids can jump in on "Hooray for Hat!" and "Go Away! I'm Grumpy!" The whole story will have everyone feeling happy and in need of a really nifty hat.

In this playful, upbeat debut, friendship (and some jaunty accessories) offer the cure for a common complaint: grumpiness. After Elephant wakes up on the wrong side of the bed, he opens his door to discover a gift box containing a stack of crazy, colourful hats. Donning the entire pile makes his bad mood vanish, so Elephant eagerly distributes the funky headgear to Zebra, Turtle, and various other grouchy friends. With each visit, a grumbled "go away! I'm grumpy!" quickly turns to a gleeful cheer of "hooray for hat!" Young readers will want to cheer right along.
